An Ordinary American: Damn Spam.

Damn Spam.

Like a number of others, I removed the word-verify for posting comments.

The new captcha or gotcha or crapcha or whatever it is called is garbage.

Can't read it.

Can't read it, then you can't type it.

So I've been buried in spam. Filters are getting most of it--but it still appears in the e-mail box.

Such BS.

Way too much on my plate this week and next to deal with it.

Taking a short sabbatical.

And what happened to the subscribe to comments button?; March 1, 2012 at 11:45 AM

Words every American should know

Pledge of Allegiance

I pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States of America, and to the republic for which it stands, one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all.

Our National Anthem

O! say can you see by the dawn’s early light,
What so proudly we hailed at the twilight’s last gleaming,
Whose broad stripes and bright stars through the perilous fight,
O’er the ramparts we watched, were so gallantly streaming?
And the rockets’ red glare, the bombs bursting in air,
Gave proof through the night that our flag was still there;
O! say does that star-spangled banner yet wave,
O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?
